change color of text in header

Hi,

Where do I change the color of the text in my header / footer.
( the text like Log in - my account - home etc.

I have been looking in my /www/includes/templates/magic/css/stylesheet.css but I can't find the right place...

You'll need the Firefox browser and the Web Developer plugin for it. That will allow you to see where that is defined.

Ctrl-Shift-Y will allow you to hover over the part of the page you're interested in, and the CSS for that element will be shown in the box at the top.

Ctrl-Shift-E will open the stylesheet(s) in an editor so you can make changes and see them reflected on the page immediately. You'll still have to actually edit the stylesheet on the server to make those changes permanent.

Re: change color of text in header

Thanks a lot, that was very informative information for me :smile:

but I'm still not able to change the color of the text in my header.

Maybe I did someting wrong under the installation of the norwegian language. My site is www.mazdadeler.no and in the header the word "min konto" is blue but all the other words around is white.

I don't find this word in the /includes/templates/magic/css/stylesheet:dontgetit

..any good tip....
